This is not a day for mourning, it's a day for celebration. To be thankful for what we have. Every nation, including the indigenous peoples, have conquered the nation that existed there before. As long as people remain free of thought and succumb to human nature, conflict will arise. It has always been conquer or be conquered. It's not Europe's fault that they developed first.
Contrary to popular belief, Religious and Racial TOLERANCE in America BEGAN in Plymouth Colony. The Mayflower Compact assured peaceful coexistence of the religious separatists and the secular settlers who composed the "Pilgrims." Not all settlers to America were good or respectful of natives, but the Pilgrims were. They believed Leviticus 19:33,34, and so made laws that natives must be treated the same as whites. They even executed whites for killing a native. The great fear of the Pilgrims was that other groups would come to America who would mistreat the natives, and that this evil would be attributed to them. Sadly, that is exactly what happened.
@@shannontaylor1849 Indians took land from Indians! They killed murdered for land from each other! European’s bought land from Indians! But they were under the influence play at the European’s when they left that they could get the land back with out buying it back🤔

I found out the truth several years ago by my Tribal Chief/cousin here in South Carolina. Its nothing like the school books say. I like the idea of Thanksgiving, gathering with family, friends, and having a good time, but the actuality of it... NOPE! As a kid, I didn't know any better. As an adult, u betcha!

"In 1637 near present day Groton, Connecticut, over 700 men, women and children of the Pequot Tribe had gathered for their annual Green Corn Festival which is our Thanksgiving celebration. In the predawn hours the sleeping Indians were surrounded by English and Dutch mercenaries who ordered them to come outside. Those who came out were shot or clubbed to death while the terrified women and children who huddled inside the longhouse were burned alive. The next day the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony declared “A Day Of Thanksgiving” because 700 unarmed men, women and children had been murdered. Cheered by their “victory”, the brave colonists and their Indian allies attacked village after village. Women and children over 14 were sold into slavery while the rest were murdered. Boats loaded with a many as 500 slaves regularly left the ports of New England. Bounties were paid for Indian scalps to encourage as many deaths as possible. Following an especially successful raid against the Pequot in what is now Stamford, Connecticut, the churches announced a second day of “thanksgiving” to celebrate victory over the heathen savages. During the feasting, the hacked off heads of Natives were kicked through the streets like soccer balls. Even the friendly Wampanoag did not escape the madness. Their chief was beheaded, and his head impaled on a pole in Plymouth, Massachusetts - where it remained on display for 24 years. The killings became more and more frenzied, with days of thanksgiving feasts being held after each successful massacre. George Washington finally suggested that only one day of Thanksgiving per year be set aside instead of celebrating each and every massacre. Later Abraham Lincoln decreed Thanksgiving Day to be a legal national holiday during the Civil War - on the same day he ordered troops to march against the starving Sioux in Minnesota."

Thanksgiving is both a celebration, and remembering to me. It should be celebrated as a time of peace between natives and europeans. And a time of remembrance for those who died and suffered because of colonization. My great great grandmother was a native, and my great great great grandfather was a california bear flagger.
They want to pretty up this holiday... and just say it’s day to be thankful... you can be thankful any day and everyday... be respectful and disown this holiday that is a crime against humanity.
I am a proud Lenape Indian and also a Pennsylvania German. Christopher Columbus is my hero, because he made me who I am today, a mix of European and Indigenous American, and despite left-wing hate mongering and left-wing bigotry, I am at peace with who I am. GOD Bless everyone on this festive Thanksgiving !

@@JimPigMuseumOfSound Good point. There are good examples and bad examples in American history. By focusing on the bad we will simply separate into grievance groups and stew on our injustices, occasionally boiling over into burning our collective accomplishments. This is why I try to remind people that there was good early on.
That is so funny and the late 90s mid-90s I was asked to give a kindergarten class the story of Thanksgiving I had the original one about the Pequot Indians and the slaughter thereof and when I showed it to her in writing from England she said you can't say this it'll scare it it'll scare the kids you know they won't let you tell the truth like that so I told him that I can't speak at your function cuz I refuse to lie children need to know the truth so does everyone else and I refuse to do it and I left and went home I'm very proud of your father he did the right thing 😊😊😊😊💥💥 he brought the Thunder down to them ⚡⚡⚡⚡

@@lisah8438 he got more white than most white s. Then a damn black boy beatin on that drum. Buncha people just lookinh for an identity in thw wrong places
I'm full blood Choctaw, my great grandfather walked the trail of tears, my ancestors were forced onto reservations after our defeat. I am proud of my ancestors for giving the white man a good fight they will never forget. You black people never gave a fight much less a good one. You complain always, but you seem to forget that it was white men that fought and died for your freedom. Not many white men had slaves, only a few. White men feared and respected the tribes, because we fought bravely for many hundreds of years but in the end they won. Every defeated foe loses its claim to the land, as it has always been. When Chickasaws attacked my ancestors many years ago, they killed , raped, and sold into slavery every man woman and child. As wars have always been, the white men were no different. Today I am free and I have just as much opportunity as any white man. I am proud of my heritage and I don't hate anyone for the color of their skin, and honestly I've never met a racist white man but I've met many blacks and natives that were racist.
What are some native causes to donate to? I dont have much but I would love to do what I can for these people who have been through so much, and continue to fight for their rights
As a member of the Choctaw nation of Oklahoma, our people need to stop this bullshit. If it weren't British/European colonization it would have been someone else, Ottoman empire, Asian Dynasties, other tribes and federations of tribes. At least with the colonization by predominantly white, Anglo-saxon, European, Christians...you would have a people who would later realize their sins and try in any way to make right the wrongs...NO ONE ALIVE TODAY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SINS OF THEIR FATHER. Get on with your lives, my people, use the resources given to you in modern times (education, healthcare, housing, tax relief, utilities subsidies, food subsidies, etc) to make the next generation of native Americans more successful instead of sitting in squalor and self pity complaining about how 400 years of oppression is the fault of others.
Huxthor Born in the Lawton Indian Hospital. Raised on rezland. Card carrying member. Have all the paperwork traced back to the signing of the civilized tribes commencement. Yeah, you're friends' "feelings" don't represent mine, so you can get that shit outta here.
zinov3 I appreciate your support. I missed out on a lot of my cultures history because it isn't/wasn't fairly represented in school. We moved to find work. And coming from caddo county I'm sure you can agree, jobs and opportunities are not found easily there. I saw the neighborhood in shambles, the drug and alcohol abuse, the lack of education and work for the people there haxthor didn't
Huxthor holding hate in your heart for things of the past is no way to move forward.. this is exactly why a lot of Native Americans feel the same as myself and Devin Upton.. Devin Upton happily i didnt grow up on/around a reservation.. i actually grew up in Washington state, near the Spokane Indian tribe.. they did actually teach us about the history of the Spokane Indians.. which got the ball rolling for me to do further research on my own tribe.. which, i did plenty of papers all throughout school on.. im proud of my Indian heritage.. but im more proud of my American heritage.. in the grand scheme of things, my race does not matter, but the people i choose to associate with does.. i also have a couple friends that are of the Choctaw Nation and they feel the same as you and i do.. Huxthor is just one of those bitter liberals that are either trying to white knight for minorities or they are a minority and want reparations for past crimes.. either way, he's filled with hate for white people..
Huxthor do you have any idea what it takes to even become a registered card holding member of a tribe? lol obviously not.. so to completely disregard someone's race and heritage because they hold a different view than your own is in fact racist.. thank you for showing your true colors..
Thank you for sharing this thank you the real truth comes out I'm a descendant of the Wisconsin Chippewa my great great great great great great great great great great great great great great grandma was from tribe❤❤❤
Im arab bedouin and I stand with native americans far from Europe I hope to go back live in desert with my family which is what im doi g after i graduate

The natives arrived in North America from Siberia crossing the ice covered Bering Strait, they warred with different tribes massacred some and kept slaves, the Iroquois wiped out the entire Huron Tribe, I guess you could say there was quite a bit of conquering going on. What did the native contribute or invent for the benefit of mankind, sorry peoplekind besides the canoe ? Give North America to them and we'll all be living in Tee Pee's and riding horseback within 10 yrs.. I have no problem with any race or ethnic background but I'm sick of all the constant whining I see in the Liberal MSM. Get off the reservations and government handouts and become a full and productive member of society, become an equal because respect must also be earned. Nothing like being part of many special interest groups to divide society even further, people fed up with it. Happy Thanksgiving everybody, health happiness and prosperity to everyone, and if you don't like that then you have a problem.
I can honestly say that no offense to this beautiful land or the first peoples but if I had had the choice I would be in Ireland or Scotland right now. My ancestors only came 100 years ago from a land that was taken from them trying to find a better life. I don't speak for anyone but myself and I agree that the ones involved in the invasion were horrible, but I do say there were probably many more who only came here seeking a better life. Migration has never been a pretty thing like we are taught to believe. My ansetors went through it and so many other peoples. We have to remember that we are all one race, The Human Race. I am both sorry and thankful at the same time. I will mourn with you on this day.

I moved to Mandan ND,and saw extreme racism against the Lakota Indians ,it was terrible,back in 1999,I soon moved to Washington St.,where the native Americans are highly respected,
I don’t Celebrate thanksgiving. I Am Cherokee Mohican. And I feel so depressed knowing my ancestors been massacred on Thanksgiving. Sorry I don’t celebrate it.
Get over it. Do modem descendants of ancient romans get depressed that the descendants of Gauls, Vandals, and Goths don’t pay reparations for sacking Rome?
When I was growing up they told us in school about the first Thanksgiving feast that the Indian and Pilgrims had and about how they got along well together but on the TV shows and movies l would see Indians and white men fighting, as a child I often wonder what happened to cause the fighting, not knowing the truth because they never told us that in school
The Europeans settled with the natives of this world and lived happily ever after?. I must be dreaming. maybe it happened on Mars. From Argentina to Zimbabwe please tell me where this happened.
Is definitely sad what happened to native Americans a long long time ago. It's good to know that today that we all care about each other and have much love for each other.

What shows isn't my ignorance but your lack of common sense, clearly I gave you to much credit, I assumed you would have, like me, understood the numbers of indigenous people at that time, that said, when the first whites landed on this continent, they had a Christian responsibility to assimilate with the people here, not kill them with sickness and war, simply because they didn't want to adopt Christianity, the irony is they murdered the native people for the same reasons they were fleeing England, religious persecution
I will start by saying this is of course my opinion. My heritage comes from all over the world, including 2 great greats that were native American. What I would like to see is more acceptance and less division. Am I proud of my family and heritage, yes. Do I feel entitled because I was born with more of this than that, no. When I meet someone my thoughts do not run to "oh, their black, brown, white" etc. My thoughts are this is a person, someone I like or don't. That does not depend in anyway on their appearance or heritage. Thank you for being you.

@@christianfrommuslim Perhaps you should ask about the history the few surviving tribal members have of the Plymouth Colony. The winners of any conflict write their version of events to put themselves in the best possible light.
@@tmc6799 Sadly, in modern history, oral legends hundred of years old are weighed higher than accounts written at the time. This is not great historical investigative technique. However, the facts I mentioned are documented and should be more known.
The way I see it is that all peoples have been conquered by other people's at some point or another. The Welsh were indigenous to Britain and conquered by the Saxons. All tribes of tribal warrior societies were conquered at some point by other tribes and even enslaved. There is no place on earth where this is not the case. Tibet was conquered by China who still wants to rule the world with Communism. The African nations/tribes have warred and enslaved each other since the dawn of time. So we do what we can to make things better for our families in the situations we find ourselves in or else play the victim sob game like I see going on here. And I have multiracial DNA spanning the entire globe. Kinh Vietnamese, Punjabi, Bengali, Gujarati, Levantine, Iberian, German, Gaelic, Native South American, etc etc. And I happen to greatly appreciate so many aspects of Western Civilization, especially here in America, where people from all over the world are welcome to come for the opportunities and freedoms we still have here. Im so thankful that I'd never want to return to perpetual camping or tribal warrior society. I acknowledge that there is a Yin and Yang in everythang. And I'm thankful and hope you find something in America to be thankful for too. 🇺🇸
Yes many cultures have genocides and atrocities in their past. But not all of them celebrate the day, an innocent celebration covered up in lies and false narratives of what was a celebration of genocide. It’s important to understand the past and create new traditions that bring honor to it, and not cover it in Turkey-colored lies.
Thank You for sharing.I homeschool and wanted to find the Thanksgiving story and I found the story of Tisquantum and his life story and what he did to help the pilgrams. Is this all true? I would love to hear more truth from someone who has had it passed down from generations. I am not sure what to teach them now about this next week. Should I continue with how we should honor and remember Tisquantum for how helpful he was to people that wanted to live a life of Jesus? They had a 3 day celebration but this was not the 1st Thanksgiving. Then tell them the true history of the so called holiday.
I believe this story. native americans had their pretty good religion and they were living harmonious happy life. you can teach this truth that way you are honoring the truth and reality and you are genuinely sharing their pain. by doing that you become part of their healing process. and children can acquire virtue of love and compassion.

The thanks the colonizers gave to my tribe for helping them in the Revolutionary War was murdering nearly half of them and then splitting up the survivors between 2 reservations.
Because they want you to be patriotic and love your country. They way they know you'll do that is if they lie to you. You can't be proud of a Nation founded on mass genocide. I have a lot more in my channels discussion tab if you want to know what else they didn't teach you. It gets much, much worse than this. "Thanksgiving" is just the beginning.
School is just a starting point but it's up to us to find the true facts. Plenty of people know this now, but don't want their make believe day interrupted.
@The Realest Then we are wasting time on "America" and we should abolish this lost cause, known as colonialism and get to building a Nation we can be proud of.
I'm thankful to live in America, it's history is something to be proud of. Whatever loss to the original people was hundreds of years before Washington declared Thanksgiving day, not about the pilgrims, but about the founding of a government that recognized God-given rights.
My grandma’s cousin’s husband is Ojibwa and I really want to meet him and learn more about his awesome culture I think that the idea of giving thanks is good but the history is so sad I’m very sorry to the native Americans that we’ve hurt please forgive me
I think we should all come together and become united not separated. The past is the past no one who killed natives are alive today we are a new generation of love and peace
I'm part Italian thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays but with that said I don't agree with what the pilgrims did to the natives they took they land there women and gave them blankets with diseases but lots of people celebrate holiday and be thankful
To take away from the myth, I would add taking away the use of American and Indian. First Nations is appropriate. And, although like "Crazy Horse" said below that every inch of this planet has been taken from someone, it is still kind to pay respects and not mock the true history. How would most people feel about "Americans" celebrating Hitler's birthday; for example?

Contrary to popular belief, Religious and Racial TOLERANCE in America BEGAN in Plymouth Colony.
The Mayflower Compact assured peaceful coexistence of the religious separatists and the secular settlers who composed the "Pilgrims."
Not all settlers to America were good or respectful of natives, but the Pilgrims were.
They believed Leviticus 19:33,34, and so made laws that natives must be treated the same as whites. They even executed whites for killing a native.
The great fear of the Pilgrims was that other groups would come to America who would mistreat the natives, and that this evil would be attributed to them. Sadly, that is exactly what happened.
Thanks for telling the truth. No more lies!
I found out the truth several years ago by my Tribal Chief/cousin here in South Carolina. Its nothing like the school books say. I like the idea of Thanksgiving, gathering with family, friends, and having a good time, but the actuality of it... NOPE! As a kid, I didn't know any better. As an adult, u betcha!

Very understandable. Much respect too the Natives of this land.
"In 1637 near present day Groton, Connecticut, over 700 men, women and children of the Pequot Tribe had gathered for their annual Green Corn Festival which is our Thanksgiving celebration. In the predawn hours the sleeping Indians were surrounded by English and Dutch mercenaries who ordered them to come outside. Those who came out were shot or clubbed to death while the terrified women and children who huddled inside the longhouse were burned alive. The next day the governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony declared “A Day Of Thanksgiving” because 700 unarmed men, women and children had been murdered.
Cheered by their “victory”, the brave colonists and their Indian allies attacked village after village. Women and children over 14 were sold into slavery while the rest were murdered. Boats loaded with a many as 500 slaves regularly left the ports of New England. Bounties were paid for Indian scalps to encourage as many deaths as possible.
Following an especially successful raid against the Pequot in what is now Stamford, Connecticut, the churches announced a second day of “thanksgiving” to celebrate victory over the heathen savages. During the feasting, the hacked off heads of Natives were kicked through the streets like soccer balls. Even the friendly Wampanoag did not escape the madness. Their chief was beheaded, and his head impaled on a pole in Plymouth, Massachusetts - where it remained on display for 24 years.
The killings became more and more frenzied, with days of thanksgiving feasts being held after each successful massacre. George Washington finally suggested that only one day of Thanksgiving per year be set aside instead of celebrating each and every massacre. Later Abraham Lincoln decreed Thanksgiving Day to be a legal national holiday during the Civil War - on the same day he ordered troops to march against the starving Sioux in Minnesota."
I am absolutely mortified right now. With our current world I believe all of this and it makes me sick!

And y'all get mad at people for skipping Thanksgiving and going straight to Christmas.
Xmas is just as wicked.

These complainers have no clue about Christmas either. They do not know Christ because they refuse to.
who cares the past is the past
Lisa you better look up Christmas it is evil to do your research on it
Thanksgiving is both a celebration, and remembering to me. It should be celebrated as a time of peace between natives and europeans. And a time of remembrance for those who died and suffered because of colonization. My great great grandmother was a native, and my great great great grandfather was a california bear flagger.
Shared this with my family. I’m sorry and embarrassed for this ignorance
They want to pretty up this holiday... and just say it’s day to be thankful... you can be thankful any day and everyday... be respectful and disown this holiday that is a crime against humanity.
so true
I am a proud Lenape Indian and also a Pennsylvania German. Christopher Columbus is my hero, because he made me who I am today, a mix of European and Indigenous American, and despite left-wing hate mongering and left-wing bigotry, I am at peace with who I am. GOD Bless everyone on this festive Thanksgiving !

@@JimPigMuseumOfSound Good point. There are good examples and bad examples in American history. By focusing on the bad we will simply separate into grievance groups and stew on our injustices, occasionally boiling over into burning our collective accomplishments.
This is why I try to remind people that there was good early on.
That is so funny and the late 90s mid-90s I was asked to give a kindergarten class the story of Thanksgiving I had the original one about the Pequot Indians and the slaughter thereof and when I showed it to her in writing from England she said you can't say this it'll scare it it'll scare the kids you know they won't let you tell the truth like that so I told him that I can't speak at your function cuz I refuse to lie children need to know the truth so does everyone else and I refuse to do it and I left and went home I'm very proud of your father he did the right thing 😊😊😊😊💥💥 he brought the Thunder down to them ⚡⚡⚡⚡

I'm full blood Choctaw, my great grandfather walked the trail of tears, my ancestors were forced onto reservations after our defeat. I am proud of my ancestors for giving the white man a good fight they will never forget. You black people never gave a fight much less a good one. You complain always, but you seem to forget that it was white men that fought and died for your freedom. Not many white men had slaves, only a few. White men feared and respected the tribes, because we fought bravely for many hundreds of years but in the end they won. Every defeated foe loses its claim to the land, as it has always been. When Chickasaws attacked my ancestors many years ago, they killed , raped, and sold into slavery every man woman and child. As wars have always been, the white men were no different. Today I am free and I have just as much opportunity as any white man. I am proud of my heritage and I don't hate anyone for the color of their skin, and honestly I've never met a racist white man but I've met many blacks and natives that were racist.
You have all my respect.
Sending my prayer and spirit with you all.
And how do you do that?
What are some native causes to donate to? I dont have much but I would love to do what I can for these people who have been through so much, and continue to fight for their rights

As a member of the Choctaw nation of Oklahoma, our people need to stop this bullshit. If it weren't British/European colonization it would have been someone else, Ottoman empire, Asian Dynasties, other tribes and federations of tribes. At least with the colonization by predominantly white, Anglo-saxon, European, Christians...you would have a people who would later realize their sins and try in any way to make right the wrongs...NO ONE ALIVE TODAY IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE SINS OF THEIR FATHER. Get on with your lives, my people, use the resources given to you in modern times (education, healthcare, housing, tax relief, utilities subsidies, food subsidies, etc) to make the next generation of native Americans more successful instead of sitting in squalor and self pity complaining about how 400 years of oppression is the fault of others.
Huxthor Born in the Lawton Indian Hospital. Raised on rezland. Card carrying member. Have all the paperwork traced back to the signing of the civilized tribes commencement. Yeah, you're friends' "feelings" don't represent mine, so you can get that shit outta here.
As a member of the Caddo Nation of Oklahoma I completely agree with the original post.. and yes, many of my tribe feel the same as I do..
zinov3 I appreciate your support. I missed out on a lot of my cultures history because it isn't/wasn't fairly represented in school. We moved to find work. And coming from caddo county I'm sure you can agree, jobs and opportunities are not found easily there. I saw the neighborhood in shambles, the drug and alcohol abuse, the lack of education and work for the people there haxthor didn't
Huxthor
holding hate in your heart for things of the past is no way to move forward.. this is exactly why a lot of Native Americans feel the same as myself and Devin Upton..
Devin Upton
happily i didnt grow up on/around a reservation.. i actually grew up in Washington state, near the Spokane Indian tribe.. they did actually teach us about the history of the Spokane Indians.. which got the ball rolling for me to do further research on my own tribe.. which, i did plenty of papers all throughout school on.. im proud of my Indian heritage.. but im more proud of my American heritage.. in the grand scheme of things, my race does not matter, but the people i choose to associate with does.. i also have a couple friends that are of the Choctaw Nation and they feel the same as you and i do.. Huxthor is just one of those bitter liberals that are either trying to white knight for minorities or they are a minority and want reparations for past crimes.. either way, he's filled with hate for white people..
Huxthor
do you have any idea what it takes to even become a registered card holding member of a tribe? lol obviously not.. so to completely disregard someone's race and heritage because they hold a different view than your own is in fact racist.. thank you for showing your true colors..

The natives arrived in North America from Siberia crossing the ice covered Bering Strait, they warred with different tribes massacred some and kept slaves, the Iroquois wiped out the entire Huron Tribe, I guess you could say there was quite a bit of conquering going on.
What did the native contribute or invent for the benefit of mankind, sorry peoplekind besides the canoe ? Give North America to them and we'll all be living in Tee Pee's and riding horseback within 10 yrs..
I have no problem with any race or ethnic background but I'm sick of all the constant whining I see in the Liberal MSM. Get off the reservations and government handouts and become a full and productive member of society, become an equal because respect must also be earned. Nothing like being part of many special interest groups to divide society even further, people fed up with it.
Happy Thanksgiving everybody, health happiness and prosperity to everyone, and if you don't like that then you have a problem.
I can honestly say that no offense to this beautiful land or the first peoples but if I had had the choice I would be in Ireland or Scotland right now. My ancestors only came 100 years ago from a land that was taken from them trying to find a better life. I don't speak for anyone but myself and I agree that the ones involved in the invasion were horrible, but I do say there were probably many more who only came here seeking a better life. Migration has never been a pretty thing like we are taught to believe. My ansetors went through it and so many other peoples. We have to remember that we are all one race, The Human Race. I am both sorry and thankful at the same time. I will mourn with you on this day.

When I was growing up they told us in school about the first Thanksgiving feast that the Indian and Pilgrims had and about how they got along well together but on the TV shows and movies l would see Indians and white men fighting, as a child I often wonder what happened to cause the fighting, not knowing the truth because they never told us that in school
The Europeans settled with the natives of this world and lived happily ever after?. I must be dreaming. maybe it happened on Mars.
From Argentina to Zimbabwe please tell me where this happened.

What shows isn't my ignorance but your lack of common sense, clearly I gave you to much credit, I assumed you would have, like me, understood the numbers of indigenous people at that time, that said, when the first whites landed on this continent, they had a Christian responsibility to assimilate with the people here, not kill them with sickness and war, simply because they didn't want to adopt Christianity, the irony is they murdered the native people for the same reasons they were fleeing England, religious persecution
I will start by saying this is of course my opinion. My heritage comes from all over the world, including 2 great greats that were native American. What I would like to see is more acceptance and less division. Am I proud of my family and heritage, yes. Do I feel entitled because I was born with more of this than that, no. When I meet someone my thoughts do not run to "oh, their black, brown, white" etc. My thoughts are this is a person, someone I like or don't. That does not depend in anyway on their appearance or heritage. Thank you for being you.

@@christianfrommuslim Perhaps you should ask about the history the few surviving tribal members have of the Plymouth Colony. The winners of any conflict write their version of events to put themselves in the best possible light.
@@tmc6799 Sadly, in modern history, oral legends hundred of years old are weighed higher than accounts written at the time. This is not great historical investigative technique.
However, the facts I mentioned are documented and should be more known.
The way I see it is that all peoples have been conquered by other people's at some point or another. The Welsh were indigenous to Britain and conquered by the Saxons. All tribes of tribal warrior societies were conquered at some point by other tribes and even enslaved. There is no place on earth where this is not the case. Tibet was conquered by China who still wants to rule the world with Communism. The African nations/tribes have warred and enslaved each other since the dawn of time. So we do what we can to make things better for our families in the situations we find ourselves in or else play the victim sob game like I see going on here. And I have multiracial DNA spanning the entire globe. Kinh Vietnamese, Punjabi, Bengali, Gujarati, Levantine, Iberian, German, Gaelic, Native South American, etc etc. And I happen to greatly appreciate so many aspects of Western Civilization, especially here in America, where people from all over the world are welcome to come for the opportunities and freedoms we still have here. Im so thankful that I'd never want to return to perpetual camping or tribal warrior society. I acknowledge that there is a Yin and Yang in everythang. And I'm thankful and hope you find something in America to be thankful for too. 🇺🇸
Yes many cultures have genocides and atrocities in their past. But not all of them celebrate the day, an innocent celebration covered up in lies and false narratives of what was a celebration of genocide. It’s important to understand the past and create new traditions that bring honor to it, and not cover it in Turkey-colored lies.
@@brittanyismebboh BS. There was no genocide on the first Thanksgiving feast..They all got along..stop with the misery.
Thank You for sharing.I homeschool and wanted to find the Thanksgiving story and I found the story of Tisquantum and his life story and what he did to help the pilgrams. Is this all true? I would love to hear more truth from someone who has had it passed down from generations. I am not sure what to teach them now about this next week. Should I continue with how we should honor and remember Tisquantum for how helpful he was to people that wanted to live a life of Jesus? They had a 3 day celebration but this was not the 1st Thanksgiving. Then tell them the true history of the so called holiday.
I believe this story. native americans had their pretty good religion and they were living harmonious happy life. you can teach this truth that way you are honoring the truth and reality and you are genuinely sharing their pain. by doing that you become part of their healing process. and children can acquire virtue of love and compassion.

Because they want you to be patriotic and love your country. They way they know you'll do that is if they lie to you. You can't be proud of a Nation founded on mass genocide. I have a lot more in my channels discussion tab if you want to know what else they didn't teach you. It gets much, much worse than this. "Thanksgiving" is just the beginning.
School is just a starting point but it's up to us to find the true facts. Plenty of people know this now, but don't want their make believe day interrupted.

I think we should all come together and become united not separated. The past is the past no one who killed natives are alive today we are a new generation of love and peace
You need to be aware of the ongoing issues regarding land, etc.
I'm part Italian thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays but with that said I don't agree with what the pilgrims did to the natives they took they land there women and gave them blankets with diseases but lots of people celebrate holiday and be thankful
It's the richest country of all time
To take away from the myth, I would add taking away the use of American and Indian. First Nations is appropriate. And, although like "Crazy Horse" said below that every inch of this planet has been taken from someone, it is still kind to pay respects and not mock the true history. How would most people feel about "Americans" celebrating Hitler's birthday; for example?
First off natives didn’t have nations, they had many diverse competing tribes. Secondly, many Americans do celebrate hitlers birthday (4/20).
